Trail Canyon Trail is 2 miles one way. The trail travels up a canyon through tall ponderosa pine, aspen, mountain mahogany, and shrubs. A number of small caves dot the limestone walls along the way.
After following an old road for 1.2 miles it narrows down to a foot trail. Eventually the trail climbs out of the canyon, heading toward the northern point of Cockscomb Ridge where it reaches the junction of North Loop Trail. The trail to the left leads to Charleston Peak.
